    I mean, we will see about that. Maybe, that’s true, maybe not. There are huge protests in that country every few months. IMO, it’s a matter of time until it collapses.

      It is, but not all change is positive change. The replacement could be fascism, or US vassals (setting the stage for Islamic Republic 2.0), or literally anything other than a healthy democracy, and a war of national survival does not at all bode well for the latter possibility. There is such a thing as good conditions and bad conditions for democracy.

        I mean… We can guess around whether it gets better or worse. We don’t yet…

        Maybe, the replacement kills tens of thousands of protesters, too… Maybe, they won’t…
